Thanks for doing the IamA, Magnus! I've recently gotten really interested in chess so this is exciting for me!

  • When you play a game, how many variations are you going over in your head? How many moves out do you usually visualize?
  • What's the biggest blunder you've made since reaching GM status?
  • When you look at a chess board, are you thinking about individual pieces or the whole board? Is it anything like a speed reader, who sees "the whole page" rather than reading word by word?

Thanks!!

Which of you is white?

Very cool. If you don't mind a novice asking, what makes this game a draw? And what could be your top chess achievement over drawing with the world champ? :)
